The makers of Cock N’ Bull Ginger Beer are at it again. This time, they have added a new flavor to their repertoire with Cock N’ Bull Cherry Ginger Beer, and a custom cocktail to accompany it. Last fall, we introduced you to copper mugs and the Moscow Mule, made with original Cock N’ Bull Ginger Beer. Now, we’d like to share with you the Dandy Donkey, custom made with Cock N’ Bull Cherry Ginger Beer, and just as equally appealing when served in a hammered copper mug, like this one from World Tableware. Described as a “not-too-distant cousin” of the Moscow Mule, the Dandy Donkey is loved by all who occasionally imbibe.

How do you make a Dandy Donkey, you ask? It’s really quite simple…

First, you’ll need:

• 1½ ounce Vodka of your choice
• ½ fresh lime
• Ice
• Cock N’ Bull Cherry Ginger Beer, ice cold is best
• A cherry or two
• An awesome copper mug

Second, combine the vodka, ice, and Cock N’ Bull Cherry Ginger Beer in a copper mug. Squeeze the juice from half of a lime (you can drop the squeezed lime into your beverage for added visual appeal if you would like), and stir gently. Garnish with a cherry (or two) and enjoy!
